Immunity by William E Paul
Paul argues that we must position ourselves to take advantage of cutting-edge technologies and promising new tools in immunological research, including big data and the microbiome.
An excellent overview of what science knows about immunology today-- Harriet Hall Science-Based Medicine Written by a prominent researcher and scholar who not only followed the history of immunology but also participated in its creation, Immunity could be considered as an excellent summary of the classical, pre-systemic, immunological era. Metascience It is well written, informative and gives detailed descriptions even down to defining platelets- sometimes we make the assumption that individuals know these details but the author has pre-empted this and provided ample explanations, which in essence will widen his audience... I would recommend this book to students, healthcare assistants, clinicians, and nurse specialists working within all areas. In essence this book could be read by individuals who have an keen interest within immunity but is written in such a way that it is accessible to those who have little or no knowledge within this area as the book is so informative.
